    This seeding is terrible... I am conflicted... what I think will win and what I want.

    what dreams said:

    Has anyone else had trouble with their computer crapping out on Region 4. The drag and drop doesn't work for me on that page. I'm so close to being done.

    So far, I've got Indifference (region 1) vs. Man of the Hour (region 2) and Hail, Hail (region 3) vs. __________ (region 4).

    I'm kind of annoyed I can't finish the game -- and I don't even plan on winning anything. I'm pretty sure nobody out there would make the same choices as I would!

    Fun afternoon, and I'm loving the 64 song playlist tonight.

    YES! Tried it twice and both times it will not save and continue at the last step.

    This should be fun. And, just like in an NCAA March Madness tourney, I filled out my bracket with what I EXPECT to win, but will be voting for what I WANT to win. Yes, that means that I'll be voting against my predictions in many cases, but who cares? I'm as interested in seeing how well I can predict users' picks as I am in having my favorite songs win.

    I have Black beating SOLAT.

    I think Oceans and Betterman rounded out my top 4.

    Same here, I just went through and picked my faves. No math or best chances at winning, just went with the heart

    What's the consensus for "group of death"? and the weakest brackets?

    In my opinion, the weakest 1st/2nd round match ups are found in the part of Region 3 LB v. YM and JG/Getaway...meaning one of those 4 is going to make the group of 16!

    But that Region also has some gems in Release, Who you are, Corduroy, I am mine, Yellow Ledbetter

    The highest score after the first round was 64.

    After some playing with numbers:
    1 correct 1st round pick = 2 points (For a total of 64 possible).
    1 correct 2nd round pick = 16 points (For a total of 64 + 256 = 320 possible).

    I was just coming to post something similar. If that is the correct scoring system then I have 276 points. Not too bad. I have Black, RVM, Release and SOLAT in final 4 with Black over Release in Final.
